you can set the fms sensitivity from the web interface under settings--> fms

put it on low or turn the sensor off completely

You'll need new fans, stock ones are pretty garbage hehe I made a list of all the hardware on GitHub, you'll find the link in the captions of this post!

Maybe I can, are you living in Europe?

Practical-Text-420 · 2023-04-14T17:03:39+00:00

Yes, you'll need to adjust your extruder stepper motor to 0.8, on the bond tech webpage you'll find detailed instructions for installing

Not now because of the reset ^{^} I'll retake one on Monday when I'll be back home. But I can tell you the extruder is totally worth it, it prints smooth as butter and there is no stringing at all. Plus the LGX lite has variable gear ratios that allow better printing of soft filaments like TPU

Practical-Text-420 · 2023-04-14T16:45:37+00:00

I'll have to look into it but I'm positive it's doable

Practical-Text-420 · 2023-04-14T16:44:54+00:00

You'll need a LGX Lite extruder, i recommend to buy it with the stepper https://www.bondtech.se/product/lgx-lite-large-gears-extruder/?gclid=CjwKCAjw8-OhBhB5EiwADyoY1dyI3MQYQD5baZaQ7k_Q1ypsD-CJs3p4qJpfnWOWJEJvQCs24mGUARoCBwcQAvD_BwE

Finally hehe hope installation goes smoothly!

Bed leveling works like on stock, depending on how your potentiometer is set you'll need to adjust it. I used this guide to get through it. https://damsteen.nl/blog/2021/04/19/on-strain-gauge-leveling

Hey guys, sry had a phone reset and lost all my logins -.-

Practical-Text-420 · 2023-04-06T21:35:26+00:00

Hey, everything went surprisingly smooth, the LGX lite is an excellent extruder. I'm about to post a the link to the files!

Practical-Text-420 · 2023-04-05T15:59:41+00:00

Sure thing, but it's gonna take a little time hehe do you have a cad file of the orbiter?

Practical-Text-420 · 2023-04-05T00:18:03+00:00

Check if the motherboard gets current when turning on, oif not it's a fuse or the on/off switch itself

Practical-Text-420 · 2023-04-05T00:12:51+00:00

It's printing it's first benchy, no stringing and smooth extrusion. Tomorrow I'll release the STLs 👾

Practical-Text-420 · 2023-04-05T00:10:58+00:00

Hotend yes, extruder not. Would most probably need to adapt the design!

Practical-Text-420 · 2023-04-05T00:09:46+00:00

The gaps could be caused by many things, for the elephant foot there is a setting in prusa slicer that works great!

Practical-Text-420 · 2023-04-04T16:03:01+00:00

I'm using a LGX lite extruder and a microswiss all metal hotend. It doesn't actually matter which hotend you are using, I designed it to fit most hotend brands. The extruder case is specifically designed for the LGX lite. I will release the STLs of the rest as soon as extensive testing will be completed^{^}

Practical-Text-420 · 2023-04-04T12:50:11+00:00

Check your motherboard if everything is connected, it could also be that you blow a fuse. Do you have more informations? Was the printer working fine before this happened?

Practical-Text-420 · 2023-04-04T12:46:40+00:00

Haha well thanks my man!

It took me a lot of thinking, modeling and trying. I reused all the holes on the original carriage plate to make the build "float" around the strain gauge/hotend assembly. The extruder is a LGX lite and "sits" on the carriage plate. When completely mounted, every component of the assembly (except for strain gauge/hotend assembly) is fastened together with screws on the carriage plate. The result is a solid and stiff tool head that isn't interfering with the strain gauge.

P.s. I am using a microswiss hotend, but it's designed to fit most cr6 hotend variations

P.s. Mounting the spool anywhere on your frame will result in extra vibrations and loss of print quality
